Evaluation Criteria

Technical research papers must not be more than 10 pages. Submissions will be evaluated by at least three program committee members. The evaluation will focus on the novelty, originality, importance to the field, proper use of research methods, and presentation of the submissions.

Submission Instructions

Submitted papers must have been neither previously accepted for publication nor concurrently submitted for review in another journal, book, conference, or workshop.

All submissions must be in English, and must come in A4 paper size PDF format and conform, at time of submission, to the
IEEE Conference Proceedings Formatting Guidelines
(title in 24pt font and full text in 10pt font, LaTeX users must use
\documentclass[10pt,conference]{IEEEtran} without including the compsoc or compsocconf option). Also, papers must comply with the
IEEE Policy on Authorship
.

Submissions must be submitted electronically in PDF before the due date via EasyChair.

The Chairs reserve the right to reject submissions (without reviews) that are not in compliance or out of scope for the conference.
